Hunter is the second son of mayor Steven Kincaid and his wife Brenda, younger brother to Anderson and older brother to his sister Brooke. From a very early age he was distant from the woman that gave birth to him and closer to his father and early one he learned appearances were often at times deceiving. It is a well known family secret his mother likes the bottle and for himself he has always been wary of drinking because of it. If anything he was fine and has always been fine with being the middle child and family mediator between his parents. He is very protective of his younger sister and like Kincaid’s before him learned his name could get him away with anything. He attended high school locally and in high school had his fair share of girls and partying that was not unnoticed by his mother and father. When his older brother left for college and Chicago as he was going to go to college he told his father he didn’t want to follow in his footsteps and become mayor.

Hunter and Max reconnected in college where they were part of the mutual party scene with her friends, her brother Jackson and their friend Mason. Eventually he stepped back especially when he noticed Jackson slipping further and further into the drugs, most of their friends wake up call was when Cat died. He was horrified that Jackson drove high and from then on he only went to the parties as a wingman. He and Max got closer and began a heavy relationship and after a proper courtship he proposed marriage much to the thrill of his parents and hers. The wedding was massive one of the biggest in the state. He went to work for his father at City Hall where he has been for years in Economic Development and he loves his job helping businesses and the town grow, working with city planners.

Over the years his marriage to Max had changed and they have grown distant and he learned a few months ago of her affair with Philip Montgomery.
